[Discussion] Developers Corner

[Succy]

I guess many people who've just started reading wonders what this is.
This is a thread where I want people who consider themself as Developers(Not people who only can makes items through WoW-V) to discuss diffrent Subjects, not specificly only development stuff, sharing ideas and discussing ways of creating and developing but also questions like: Why we develop and other questions!

So for me question like "Why we develop" is like the classical question "What's the meaning of life", all people have their own answear, and that is what's wonderful. Maybe some people here have started developing because they saw something the thought was cool? Maybe someone wanted to change Emulation? And for me I wanted to be creative, but as I suck painting and drawing and I also think many more "creative things" get boring. This was the perfect thing for me, to be able to change my favorit game, both doing small updates, fixing things and also doing great updates. Developing is lovely and I see it as Art!

But now, the first subject I wanna bring up in the "Developers Corner" is,
Why are we developing?

And, I'm not the only one who's gonna ask question and bring news subjects. I want this to be a public debate/discussion for all people who is into Development!

So just ask your question and we'll all talk about it!

I develop because I started one time and I have a very obsessive personality and now I'm addicted.

To save the people that were banned from Retail WoW or just could not afford Retail WoW, so we are making their lives better one server/repack at a time. Thats is my way that i create repacks. :P Really... and to amaze them like there is no tomorrow...

Why I develop? If I can class myself as a developer.

The reason is that purpose with life is to help people, and in this, you help people to have fun by creating new and, mostly, fun content and other different stuff.

But we all know what the great meaning of life is, and no, it's not 42... its one one number, that never ends

I develop because it is fun, gives me something to learn, and something to do when Im bored.

[TheSpidey]

I develop because I can

I develope because there is always something i can create, something to upgrade into something better, or something broken that needs fixing.
It never ends!

lol according to this guy + the scifi channel, its 132

132 replaces 42 as the meaning of life, the universe and everything. « notgartner

agree with you buddy

What TheSpidey said is actually very true. If you ask most hackers "Why do they hack?", many of them would answer: Because we can.

So that's my answer too :] Also it's very fun and addictive.

[Power of Illuminati]

It looks like that we all got the same reason why we develop stuff, without Spidey as he said, he does it beacuse he can... not to help people/beacuse it's fun

I hope people continue to help people


And to Mike Crowe, ofcourse you are doing this beacuse you can, I wouldn't be able to make this if I couldn't. But it's not realy the main point for me, and for most of the other developers.

It's great with all these answears! I'm glad it's good responses on this thread! And I think most of you develop for good reasons
